4. (1) Appeals Board. The President of the State University of New York College at Plattsburgh designates three persons and three alternates to serve on the Traffic and Parking Appeals Board. The board shall hear complaints for violations of the campus traffic and parking regulations enforceable on campus. In no way is this to be construed to take precedence over section 565.2 of this Part. No board member will consider any appeal emanating from an immediate supervisor.

6. (3) Filing an appeal.
  1. (i) A hearing may be requested by submitting an appeal to the University Police within five business days from receipt of a violation. Failure to submit an appeal within five business days mandates that the violation is valid.
  2. (ii) Any visitor who receives a “No Permit Visible” violation shall complete the reverse of the ticket, and return it within five business days to University Police, 101 Broad Street, Plattsburgh, NY 12901.
  3. (iii) Should an alleged violator fail to appear at the time fixed for the hearing, or should no hearing be requested within the five business days of receipt of the violation, the complaint is proved and shall warrant the violation as valid.
